Green Room - Part 3 Week 0 The Halloween Edition
Another day and we've hit *130 contestants*??? I wasn't sure that we were going to have as many as Season 3, and here we are, VERY close to doubling it!!
One of the things that makes me really happy is the diversity out there. Lots of new people with new experiences to meet and learn from.
I'm also quite pleased with the people who have experience in the publishing industry who have entered. It always makes me chuckle (well ok, not "chuckle") when I see people talking about "the popularity contest" aspects as if the key to getting published is just writing a really really good, putting it on a shelf and watching the money roll in. As if there wasn't a LOT of networking and self promotion involved.
So how are you this morning? Who have you been enjoying reading/interacting with so far?

Robert Goulet died people... what's this about Vampires and Werewolves? ;) (He says while using his Monster Squad icon)
Also, I wanna thank everyone who commented on my comment in the last green room. I'm going to pour through all those wonderful insights and such in a bit.
The one thing I hate about Halloween? People dressing up their dogs... it's too much!

To be a REAL pirate though. I don't know. Spending life on sea, porting in lowly places, hiding in caves and attacking villages while pillaging and raping before running. I don't think it'd be the greatest life.

I'm a weekend pirate. *burns a cd*

I mean some of those files are huge, they can take all day. ;)
I wanna dress like a pirate every day... they have a word for that these days. Oh right... fairy. Sadly it's actually hard to find a puffy shirt in my size.

but truly... funny indeed.

I would have to agree with this.
The pet section of Wal-Mart now carries a full line of fashion accessories for the dainty pooch. Paris Hilton wanna-bes will rejoice.

I'm sure someone has Shitzu named Ping-Ping wearing a diamond necklace and huge sunglasses.
I want to punch that person... repeatedly.
Some of the costumes for pets are clever...but none of them ever look happy to be wearing them. You can see it in their eyes!

You know they do. Cats are cool like that.

I like cats, but they aren't cool... they're feisty! Cool fesity, but feisty, dress up a cat..lose an eye... dress up a dog, get a sad puppy dog face.
